1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Circulating sulfate needs to be maintained at sufficiently high levels for healthy growth and development. Animal studies have shown the adverse physiological consequences of low circulating sulfate level on the skeletal, neurological and reproductive systems. However, sulfate is not routinely measured in clinical investigations, despite the importance of sulfate being documented over the past several decades. Several methods have been developed for measuring serum and plasma sulfate level in animals and humans, including a range of barium sulfate precipitation techniques that have been a major focus of sulfate analytics since the 1960s. Evaluation of an ion chromatography method demonstrated its utility for investigation of sulfate levels in human health. More recently, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry has been used to show hyposulfatemia in a human case of mild skeletal dysplasia. This article provides an overview of analytical methods for measuring sulfate in serum and plasma, highlighting the strengths and limitations of each method.
